Well, It Happend
She sprung a leak somewhere between work and home, only about a 10 min ride. But she dumped a puddle of oil in the driveway. Cant check her yet cuz she's hot. I dont have a manual so Im going to do what any self respecting PO'd SOB without a manual would do... rip thru the damn thing till I find it. So if anyone has any ideas for me before its in 1001 and peices please, do tell. Im gonna go take 2 asprine and 6 miller lites now. Check back later, thanks fellers.

check the obvious first: drain plugs, filter, return line, vents, etc. if nothing there you can start looking at gasketed joints, ie cases, cylinder bases, primary cover, clutch/trans cover, etc. you may get off very easily here, check all that before panicking

from the picture it looks like its coming from the oil filter housing itself. there are a few bolts that bolt the filter housing to the case...certainly could have come loose. They do have a "tab" on them tha tshould stop that from happening, but you never know.
